Mark Todd's Olympic horse NZB Galdalf has been put down as the result of a serious neurological disorder.
Kleng, an 18-year-old Norwegian Fjord horse who has carried hundreds of disabled riders on his strong back over the years at the NorthWest Therapeutic Riding Centre outside Bellingham, Washington, has been honoured for his work.
Connie Hines was never the star of the show, but she remained best known throughout her life for her role in the hit TV show, "Mister Ed".
Another horse has been butchered in south Florida, the 24th to have died this year as part of an illegal meat trade.
Two teenagers have been arrested over the recent shootings of three horses and five cows in western Wisconsin.

Dukey and I are leaving CHC. We are moving on Dec. 31 to a private farm at Kennedy & Elgin Mills. Legacy Farms. He will have outdoor board and a huge run in shed. I am allowed outside coaching provided it doesnt inter with current lessons. I would love to start up with you in the new year. However, I dont know what times you are available. Apparently this barn doesnt open until 10:00 am, but I am sure some exceptions can be made. I dont know if late on a Saturday afternoon around 4:30 is an option, anyways let me know! Sherri
We miss you... you will be happy that Duke is nailing that flying change from left to ride lead CLEAN!
I will be in touch very soon for some dressage lessons again.
What's in a name? asked Shakespeare. "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. " His truth may apply to roses, but I am going to go back to my surname at birth eventually and officially. My "borrowed" surname has expired. So everyone will have to try and get used to Kozak turning (back) into Peer. But for now I wear the burden of both names so I don't get lost in the rosters.
Anyway, I've had the pleasure of judging at RCRA several times this year. What a great facility! And a team which is trying hard to put on first rate shows. I just did the October show. But I won't be doing November. I am judging their winter Gold show in March, and hope everyone will come out, support the concept and start a new trend.
PAEC is another great facility with a great team which I always enjoy visiting, so give me a call and we'll work on some dates.
Dressage has come a long way locally. I love horses and love to see them enjoying their work. So many riders show that kind of harmony today. It is amazing to be able to take part.
Happy riding, Krista.
